I gave my opinion on Eric Bledsoe after you mushed him and he must've missed it.


Your opinions are one step higher than dog sh!t. So much so, that it's hard to fathom that half of the crap you post is truly how you feel.

and ps -- my opinions are good enough to have my bookie hating on my money line plays every week. Ya know, the opposite of your self-imposed $2000 mythical limit! I made more on the Sixers 3 game stretch against DEN, SAC, & POR than you will all year betting basketball, and that's a stone cold fact!

Oden says he's feeling good. He will be crucial against the Pacers.

Great Strength of Schedule chart with both season to date and rest of the way rankings:



Portland and Phoenix with the two easiest schedules up to this point of the season in the Western Conference. Things get a lot tougher from here on out. For Portland they go on a 4 game in 5 nights road trip with 2 back to backs, Spurs and Mavericks then Rockets and Thunder to start with...coming out of that 2-2 would be huge.

Toronto looks like they have a great shot at securing a top 4 seed in the East with both the way they're playing and the way the schedule plays out the rest of the way. Not that it will really matter but it's good to see them playing well for the first time in a long while.

Funny how Indiana is flat lined easy...schedule wise...they don't need any help in getting home court advantage. They're confident, talented and hungry and will give the Heat more than they want in the Eastern Finals. LeBron will need to be super human to get Miami past the Pacers this year.

Nice TNT double header tonight.....
I'll take Indiana, though I think NY plays good tonight. If I was betting I would take them to cover the 10.5

I'll take Houston in game 2. Think they will by 5. Another good game though.

Thanks for the chart. Interesting look.
I still prefer Miami. Indiana is a powerhouse though. Whatever one of them wins the east should be favored in the finals over anyone from the West. The playoffs will be amazing. You have the giant showdown in the East and legit 6 teams that can win the West.

I have them a close second. I guess its based on projections. Sure right now they are best. I think Miami wins it all though.

Jeremy Lamb is kinda talented.

Good 4 game road trip for the Blazers. Spurs and Thunder are the top two teams in the West. Durant is pretty much unstoppable, it's really too bad Westbrook had to get hurt on that odd play in last year's playoffs.

Great story and great wager by you with the total. I don't see them in the playoffs though. Memphis, Denver or Minnesota will pass them. I hope they hang in though.

[RockHardTen1985]

Durant's a beast.

[RockHardTen1985]

Kevin Durant is a monster.

Starting to seem pretty likely. Lebron would have to have a huge stretch or do the 60-40 thing.
Step Curry is a beast too. I know you guys don't like GS as much as me, but if they could get anything from Barnes. I'm still sticking with them to come out, but its gonna be tough.

Of course he will, he lives here. Aldridge is a fine player, but come on...he isn't in the same class as KD right now. Lebron is still the better player, but he is coasting.

What's you're thoughts on Reggie Jackson?? Seeing full games 3x lately, I'm not a fan.
Maybe that's why Brooks plays Fischer??

Reggie is decent, but he was better suited to the 6th man role than a starting point guard. He has played a lot better the last couple. One thing is for sure, he has saved the Thunder a lot of money on his new contract.
